    On this linked page, does anyone know what the discounted option entails? It says: hi-res with sublime+, what is sublime + ?
    Thank you for your help

    Thanks for posting the Qobuz link!

    Is it possible to get the art work and lyrics with any of these downloads?  Seems like that was a thing in the early days of digital downloads.

    It's a subscription - you pay a monthly fee (not sure what it is) and get streaming options as well as purchasing discounts. Even without the streaming if you buy a ton of HD files digitally it might be in your favor to sign up from an economical stance.

    Purchased from Qobuz, and WOW. I've never been much of an audiophile, but this sounds unbelievable. There is so much going on within these songs.

    If you have the right app. I (and many others) use Power Amp. Your phone capabilities may limit what you can hear though.

    Does the band still get a fair cut if I purchase an album through one of those hi-res services? Curious not just for Pearl Jam, but for other albums I may want to get, as well.

    On average, bands only make about 17 cents per album sold because the label devours most of the profit. That said, I'm not sure how releasing something under your own label changes that equation.

    So by "fair cut" standards, they'd probably make about the same from one of those services.

    The Qobuz download only comes with the front cover artwork. The nice thing about buying the HiRes version from Quboz is that they allow you to download all of the lower quality formats with your purchase, which saves some time and hassle if you need the music in other formats as well.

    24Bit 96kHz Flac-HD 1.15GB's


    Was kinda hoping for a 192kHz release. Maybe it'll be available after the Blu-ray release of the film is out.

    Well, yes. But buying an album still supports an artist more than streaming on Spotify does.

    Is the regular TenClub digital download Hi-Res? I know demetrios showed the photo that the bundle pack with the badge and stickers does, but just wondering of the regular download is as well.

    Got the qobuz hi-res and during Seven O'Clock it there is a very strange warp glitch sound around 5:30, is anyone else having this problem?

    Edit: same thing at the beginning of Take The Long Way. Reaching out to quboz customer service and hopefully it's just a problem with my specific download but I'm a little worried. Tried downloading in FLAC and WMA, both had the warp sound.

    only reason im gonna give them the extra money is that someone is having issue with the Quboz version?
